NoNewTaleToTell: Everybody running around yelling that the sky is falling because of Steam and that GOG is truly the messiah in these dark times, they do realize (or remember) how often GOG has reneged on its (former) ideals in the past year or two, right?
I mean, I'm not the only one who remembers the fair price ideal? Or how the regional pricing was never really done away with, just altered a bit? Or not needing any client to download and play, but now Galaxy is replacing the Downloader? Just to name a few examples, plus more obvious stuff like the fact that they still have fixed a potential security problem despite them being aware of it for over a year. Oh and of course the website it breaking in a new way every few weeks. The only ideal GOG has left is being DRM-free and who knows how much longer that'll hold out, depending on how heavily they're actually invested in the Galaxy client.
Am I alone here?
No your not alone Humble Store did an "overhaul" and it now is way more of a pain to use and most bundle sites are seemingly going more Steam heavy. I hope GOG lasts but who knowsI mean, I'm not the only one who remembers the fair price ideal? Or how the regional pricing was never really done away with, just altered a bit?
